Send customized auto-emails with Power BI data to any recipient using Power Automate. Power Automate can query your Power BI datasets. To write the query, use the DAX directly from a visual in your report for the "Query a Power BI Dataset" step. You can draw your recipients list from your data or another source, then filter it in Power Automate before adding it to the email. Embed as an HTML table or attach as CSV - or both! You can also store the queried data as a snapshot to SharePoint.
